Alpo Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 At first I did not realize he was being a midwife, and I thought that was kind of nasty for the Saloon (ACS). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do see how all these comments can be polarizing, but in a positive and humorous way.  Though this may cascade eventually into negativity at some point.  1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpo Posted December 11, 2023 Share Posted December 11, 2023 38 minutes ago, Pat Riot said: The guy needs to learn to spell. And he needs to learn what apostrophes are. Â First - when you make a contraction, which happens when you take two or more words and jam them together to make one word and you remove some letters, you replace the missing letters with an apostrophe. Therefore, is not becomes isn't. Is and not are shoved together to make one word and the o is removed and replaced with an apostrophe. Â If you take you and all and push them together, and remove the o and the u, you end up with y'all. You see where that apostrophe? It took the place of the o and the u. The word is not spelled Y A ' L L. It is spelled Y ' A L L. Simple word, but so many people spell it wrong. Â If you then take the word y'all and the word ain't and jam them together, removing the A L L from the word y'all, you end up with Y ' A I N ' T. Â And then we have the stupidity of the comment that ain't is a contraction of are not. Ain't is a contraction of am not. The only correct time to use ain't is after the pronoun I. Â I am not becomes I ain't. I know it does not follow the normal rules of contractions. I believe that it originally started out as I amn't, and somewhere along the line the M got read as an I and an N, and it was decided that they did not need two Ns in the word. Â Â I'm sure this is more than most of you wish to know, but as a southerner I am offended by Yankees screwing up our language. Sometimes I have to vent. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpo Posted December 11, 2023 Share Posted December 11, 2023 I used to be a route salesman. Had some 60 stores that I would go to every week. Tracy was the manager of one of my convenience stores. I got there at shift change one day. Barbara had arrived and Tracy was going home. And after Tracy drove off I looked over at Barbara and grinned and said, "Is Tracy pregnant, or just getting incredibly fat?", snicker snicker snicker, because obviously Tracy was pregnant. Â And Barbara looked back at me real serious and said, "Tracy got her tubes tied 2 years ago". Â Oops. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember a soldier of Fortune article about that particular word, and how versatile it was. For the sake of decency, in the article the word was replaced with WORD. IE: word you, word it. Â He told the story of a sergeant in charge of a machine gun crew, and their gun would not work. And finally the sergeant stood up and screamed, "WORD! THE WORDING WORDER'S WORDED!!" Â The author said that was the best example of the versatility of that particular word he had ever heard of. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
